On to the next...

It was a great season of Monster Stomp! I had a lot of fun this year with the new cast. It was also a challenge as I am getting older. My body isn't spry as it use to be. Warming up is so much more of a necessity than it used to be. I also had a lot of fun trying to improve my acting skills in the show this year. It is a rare attribute that you get work on as a musician. I was also the music captain this year which added another layer of stress but I really enjoyed it. 

I am currently working on another project under the Rockin' Road To Dublin LLC. Stay tuned for more on that!

This weekend I begin rehearsal for Deck The Halls. This will be my second Guitar contract. I am excited for something new and to add to my skills on guitar.

End of One is The Beginning of Another

Well my time at Hershey Park is over. I enjoyed working for/with Windish Productions but did not necessarily have the best time in Hershey, PA. At points I questioned whether I enjoy performing or if I just liked hanging with my friends because I have been fortunate enough to have had my close friends on all of my previous contracts. But I really do love performing. It's always better to be surrounded by friends but in the end I am in the field I want to be in. This was a great learning experience and now it is on to the next!  MONSTER STOMP! Come see me at Busch Gardens Williamsburg this Fall!!!

Video Posts

I've really been enjoying my new Pearl snare drum. I've been trying to build more of a social media presence my new sponsorships and I will say I've seen a lot of improvement. It's all about the right hashtags, diversity of the post, timing of the post, and of course quality. It seems to be working well. Stay tuned for more!!!

Sponsors!!!

I am proud to announce that am now partnered with Pearl Drums and Innovative Percussion. I am super excited to be working with the best companies with the best products around. I was able to tour both factories last time I was in Nashville. These companies really are quality. Innovative hand picks their sticks for their artist to make sure they are the right weight to how the performer prefers. Pearl treats their partners and employees so well. It is a high end and well kept facility. I just got my Pearl Championship Maple snare drum in within 5 days of ordering it. Stay tuned for videos!!!

#SticksAndClicks

Here we are. Only 9 days left of tour! It has been a crazy fun ride with Rockin' Road. On tour, we have quite a bit of free time. So Tyler Schwartz (Irish Dancer) and I began making a little video series. Irish Dance and drumming have a lot in common. They're both visually and audibly stimulating. They're also insanely rhythmic. So we began combining the two worlds in a little video series. One of our videos even went viral on Facebook as you can see below. It has received some great response so we'll see how it progresses with our upcoming vids!!!

Back at it!

After a long break, we're back on the road here at Rockin' Road To Dublin! Had some nice time off doing some teaching and learning new instruments. But now it's back to work! We're excited to play for a 1000+ crowd tomorrow here in Erie, PA. Things are running smooth and we're excited to knock these performances out of the park!

Holiday Break!

Well our Fall 2016 tour has come to an end! So thankful to the Rockin' Road cast and crew for the amazing experience and unbelievably excited for the Spring tour. Stay tuned for those dates to be posted in early December. We also had a great time recording our CD in Nashville at Playground Recording! Another exciting thing is we've just secured our second sponsorship with more on the way! Thanks to Innovative Percussion and ON2 Percussion for everything you do!

I also would like to thank Brian Doherty Photography for the amazing headshots and performance shots! Please check him out!

Now for some much needed time off with friends and family. I also plan on learning some new instruments during the break! Stay tuned!

Opening Week of Tour

Greetings from South Bend, Indiana! We are finally on the road and are about to be 4 shows in. We had a pretty solid week of shows thus far. First show had some computer issues but we all recovered well and it was like it never happened. Crowds haven't been huge but have received the show well! Stand ovation every night so far! I have been doing my best to get out in the mornings and sight see. Today was Notre Dame and tomorrow is Lambeau Field!
